Update Speculation thread

That's a lot of content, I doubt it'll drop this month. My guess is Dec 26.

 

that would be awsome, one day before my birthday! athough im not sure they would do it a [day] after christmas, i think it would be either a few days after or before,

 

Historically speaking, the main holiday update has usually been between the 15th and 21st (some years had 2 December updates with one of them in this range and the other outside the range).

• 2015: 0.5.0 was the 18th with 0.5.1 on the 30th
• 2016: 0.8.0 was on the 21st
• 2017: No December Update (edit: It was on US Thanksgiving this year)
• 2018: 0.15.0 was on the 20th
• 2019: 0.18.0 was on the 9th and 0.18.3 was on the 19th
• 2020: 0.21.0 was on the 15th
• 2021: 0.24.0 was on the 2nd and 0.24.1 was on the 20th

 

Then lets hope we dont have another 2017 on our hands this year because thats a whole lot of content for like a 1 to 1.4 months left of time.

 

2017 had an update on US Thanksgiving. So every year we've had something for the holiday season.

Looking at the teasers so far, the Piccobuggy and mystery car/truggy probably will be ready, maybe even the map too. There's been 3 years already the team split the holiday update if some things are cutting it close. Even if half of all this content gets pushed entirely to 0.28 it'll still be a fairly big update.

 

There's no way the map will be ready. Other maps had multiple teasers of in-game footage well before they were released. So far we have seen concept art and one screenshot.

 

The last time we got a full proper map was 0.15. They've changed how they tease content a lot since then. Back in the days of Utah/WCUSA/Italy we would get teasers of map content for literally years before release, and vehicles were also teased far in advanced. Nowadays they really don't tease anything further out than "update after next".

 

I wouldn´t go that far this time.
Since the sheer amount of content teased my take is they just working more efficently today and/or staffed up so more work simultanouesly done!
But thats just my speculation.

 

to update my earlier post, because i forgot about derby arenas, all the US maps, [hirochi raceway.1, small island.2, east coast.3, west coast.4, utah.5, port/industrial.6, derby arenas.7, and new one with rexy.8,

 

I will be happy just with a Remaster of any car ( maybe that ETK ) . The Pickle buggy. And then the next update maybe marchish to be the massive one

 

What's his name?

 

We've all been calling (him? her?) the dinosaur Rexy, but I'm not sure if @Leeloo has confirmed that as official.

 

Not a he

 

yes it is
many other great maps as well
--- Post updated ---

there is a good modified etk map that includes offroad area and acces to the castle but no highway

 

Do we have any information yet about what the career mode will receive in the next update?

 

Nah, it was a secrete to access the early version last update so they haven't said anything.

 

Let me add, we also don't know how long the new contnt has been in the works. They're teasing it now, but it could have been in progress long before that. I forget when the original comment by tdev (i think it was him at least, correct me if I'm wrong) about the new map being sunny & dry was, but I think it was a while ago now and we don't know if they were already making the map or in advance planning stage at that time.

They/ them

 

Because we have common sense and all this gender stuff is getting really annoying.

 

Rexy is a "he"

 

"Rexy" is a .dae mesh representative of a chunk of fibreglass.
"Rexy" is, quite categorically, an "it".
and a damn sexy one at that...
